"It protects itself from tough foes by flashing its luminescent spots to discourage them." "Being upside-down improves its blood flow and clears its mind, causing the power of its psychic moves to increase dramatically." | |
"It spins while making its luminescent spots flash. These spots allow it to communicate with others by using different patterns of light." "By exposing foes to the blinking of its luminescent spots, Inkay demoralizes them, and then it seizes the chance to flee." | |
"It draws prey near with its blinking lights and then wraps them up in its long tentacles and holds them in place." "When exchanging information with others of its kind, it flashes the light-emitting spots on its body in a complex rhythm." | |
"Opponents who stare at the flashing of the light-emitting spots on its body become dazed and lose their will to fight." "It flashes the light-emitting spots on its body, which drains its opponent’s will to fight. It takes the opportunity to scuttle away and hide." | |
